Tips
- Felt like I was cheating with the uptight & not-as-great-in-bed cousin of La Carnita & Grand Electric.
- It's a tapas restaurant. Portions are naturally small and overpriced. Our server was not very friendly. Drinks never arrived, water not refilled, empty plates not removed. Ain't worth the hype IMHO.
- Guacamole is made table side. Ceviche de Atun is so good.
- Great for a margarita and a few share plates!
- Nice atmosphere. The tacos were great but a bit pricy and the service is a not slow.
- Kidding says it's not, but totally open for lunch on the weekends.
- Get. The. Dessert. Platter.
- one of the coolest interior I've ever seen. overpriced for their small portions. fish tacos are delicious, the pork tacos and burritos were good.
- Margaritas are fantastic. Go for the mango or traditional one.
- If only the tacos were as good as the decor.
- Ensalade destelleria and baja tacos were excellent! Beef cheeks were bland. I liked the sauce in crab fritters. Got recommended Okanagan Spring pale ale beer which I loved. Service was two thumbs up
- As a vegetarian, guacamole is AMAZING! Other than that, it's very bland. I recommend Fonda Lola instead for vegetarians.
- Yes to the seven course meal.
- Baja fish tacos were GREAT. Octopus taco was disappointing. Guacamole was fresh as usual. Mulled wine was great especially since we were eating outside in winter =)
- Pricey tapas restaurant and small portions but the food is really good!
- Tequila and Mezcal drinks are a house specialty. Extensive list. Beautiful indoor space and outdoor patio (w/fireplaces!).
- Not the greatest food. Way too pricey for what you get. Good service and a nice outdoor patio space.
- Guac made table side and the churros were amazing. Looking forward to our next visit!
- Very cool interior and patio, so many details it's incredible. Food is good as well as service. Get ready, it will be hot!
- Get the crab cakes. For the love of God and all that is holy, get the crab cakes!
